  • Publication number: 20240107608
    Abstract: In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. The apparatus may be a UE. In certain configurations, the UE enters a first radio resource control (RRC) connection with a first base station of a first network. The UE receives, from the first base station, an indication that enables the UE to send a first request for deactivating or releasing resources used for communications with the first base station. In response to a determination to enter a second RRC connection with a second base station of a second network, the UE sends, to the first base station, the first request for deactivating or releasing the resources. The UE enters the second RRC connection with the second base station while maintaining the first RRC connection with the first base station.

  • Publication number: 20230145434
    Abstract: The fuel economizer is series-connected between a fuel tank and a fuel vaporization device of an internal combustion engine, and includes a first piping element and an oil cup. A first end of the first piping element is connected to the fuel vaporization device, and a second end of the first piping element is connected to the fuel tank through the oil cup for filtering the fuel tank's fuel. A spirally threaded shaft is tightly housed inside the first piping element and the spirally threaded shaft's outer circumference is configured with spiral threads to speed, rotate, and disturb the fuel as the fuel flows through to disrupt the surface tension and density of the fuel.

  • Publication number: 20230122049
    Abstract: Provided is a method for treating a SARS-CoV2 3CLpro-related disease in a subject in need thereof by blocking dimerization of 3C-like main protease (3CLpro) of the SARS-CoV2, including administering to the subject a first agent which binds to a first binding site of a SARS-CoV2 3CLpro complex and a second agent which binds to a second binding site of the SARS-CoV2 3CLpro complex, wherein the first binding site and the second binding site are functionally different sites in the three-dimensional structure of the SARS-CoV2 3CLpro complex. Also provided is a pharmaceutical combination including the first agent and the second agent for suppressing SARS-CoV2, thereby alleviating COVID-19.
